    Attendance For Saturday

    Brian Murphy has just tweeted that the expected attendance for Saturday is 16,000. Top of the league 4 wins out of 4, we should be getting 20,000 or more. Its a shame and I hope the ticket sales improve before Saturday. Everyone needs to get behind the team if we want to push forward and be one of the "big clubs"

    Even if it was a full house it wouldn't be enough for some.
    I'd expect more than 16000 - probably between 18 and 19k.

    Seems a bit odd that he would have any idea on ticket sales.
    Even odder that he would have to remove it..

    It's Barry Murphy, he's a sound bloke and big City fan, nothing to do with City's goalkeeper.

    Maybe you should make an appointment down at spec savers.

    Why do people get so worked up about attendances.

    I know I'd rather a bigger crowd because you get a better atmosphere but why do people get wound up about them.

    The author is crying about them despite the fact he doesn't even go himself.

    Also it's august bank holiday I imagine loads of people are on holiday or have better things to do.

    I think it proves the law that anything that can go wrong will go wrong!

    We're supposed to be a relatively "big club". We should be getting 20,000+.

    I am not sure where it says Cardiff are a relatively big club ? I would say we are a mediocre club who can attract a lot of tourists if we serve premier league football. They would come if we played in pink and red stripes... That is pretty much a fact (as we know).
    To be a big club we need more customers, the problem is the customers demand success or they are off to their next sporting occasion. Supporters hang around and suffer.

    I find it much easier to park the car when it isn't too busy, easier to get served at the bar , less need to rush out of the house to beat the traffic to get to the game on time .
    Every cloud guys.

    Atmosphere doesn't come from numbers, the away atmosphere far exceeds the home buzz, there will be far less in attendance.
    Cup games with less than 10,000 have been some of the best and nosiest crowds I have heard.

    Re: Attendance For Saturday

    Didn't Villa bring about 5000? And the attendance was near 24k, and then sheffield down to around 18k... but they brought about 1500. Villa is our biggest home game of the season excluding bristol, maybe our fan base has just actually shrunk to around 19k max. Maybe people actually just don't want to come back, so putting stuff on messageboards where it is likely the majority of people on them go anyway, is in fact, a bit pointless. The club know what they have to do to get bums on seats, 5 quid tickets, by one get one free. It's the only way now. Better that than an empty stadium. 4 wins clearly aren't enough to bring people back.
